User Submitted Samsung LN46A650 46-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV with Red Touch of Color Reviews Date: 2010-07-28 Great for a while Bought in June of 08 loved it until recently when it started having problems coming on. First it took a minute now days later it takes 15 minutes to come on. According to the Internet this is a very common problem and soon mine will not come on at all. You need to replace the Power supply and possible Mother board and that's big money. So no more Samsung for me. Sony here I come. Date: 2010-07-16 Beautiful picture and great quality! I love this TV....sleak cabinet and beautiful picture. I would definitely buy another one! Date: 2010-06-21 Good Picture Quality with a few flaws I really like the picture that this set gives. It looks amazing with HD cable and with PS3 games and Blu Ray. For the price Amazon beats a lot of other places to buy this TV. It's a great buy for the quality of picture and size of the TV. Where the TV flaws come in are the base/stand that the TV is on. It really is just not wide enough to fully support the TV. This causes the TV to lean from side to side and it general feels weak for such a heavy TV. However the major flaw on this set, is the random power shut off. The firmware update through Samsung's website might fix this problem; however I believe that it is caused by some electrical shutoff switches which I think can only be repaired by putting in a new part. I am currently researching this on my set. I recommend searching Google for this models product key and random shut offs, before purchasing this TV. Date: 2010-05-06 Great! Until the Warranty runs out... I bought this TV last February and it came with a 1-year warranty... 14 months later this thing goes on the fritz. The power starts flicking on and off repeatedly. I call Samsung and they are NO help; they keep telling me to go on [...] to find my nearest service agent and when I do that the 'nearest service agent is in Arizona (I'm in Illinois). Just for the fun of it I looked it up and they are over 1600 miles away. -No help. I give up on Samsung and call a local repair guy; he comes out and changes some caps which is usually the problem, but not this time apparently. Turns out to be the T-Con board and he says that they don't sell those without the whole screen attachment and it would cost $1400 to fix (bought the TV for $1350). I get online and found a store that sells Samsung T-Con Panels and they seem to have every other T-Con panel but mine. I googled the product number (LJ63-05707A) and it got ONE HIT. Unfortunately that one hit was a website telling me they had no matches. After plenty of research I've discovered that this is a recurring problem with this model and Samsung simply tries to ignore or hide it. I'm going to post this everywhere I possibly can to try and get the word out. I can't bear to throw away a $1400 TV so I guess it's going in the basement and I'll check every couple of months to see if that part comes on the market. Date: 2010-04-09 Oh boy, not good!!!!!!!! Well, past few years I have been a Samsung fan of their ability to be at the forefront of new technology in viewing entertainment. Their quality control issues need to be remedied and leaves ALOT to be desired. I bought my first one online from a large and reputable seller and came to me in a box that looked descent only to find vertical lines in the picture (which samsung has a serious problem with) I sent back that one but I still wanted this tv and I was stuck on getting it. So I bought mine from Amazon here not long after they came out. Box looked good and operated fine UNTIL NOW! Purchase date 8/20/08 No picture and just sound on 4/9/10 Wow simply wow, This television was never disturbed since it was mounted, never dropped and used mostly with standard analog cable and some blu-ray and used in a controlled environment. Unbelievable, I stand by Samsung still on the forefront of viewing technology BUT, and this is a big butt. They have quality issues as you will find around on the internets. This television was an investment to last and apparently Samsung doesn't last with my experience and many ppl on AV forums. Now maybe I should have got extended warranty? Should that be considered a must nowadays? With the poor components and testing that they seem to be doing? I am looking across from my computer monitor right now at a black screen and sound. A 1,600.00 dollar sound machine. I am thinking there is better fish in the water elsewhere, all done with sammy. * Price is subject to change. |
